In the Spotlight: How “The Przy” is Changing Artwork Forever One Print at a Time

This creative artist put noir genre artwork on the map! See why we are totally obsessed with this unique and slightly provocative young artiste.

We get so excited here at Better Decorating Bible when we discover new raw talent and have the opportunity to bring them into our spotlight. Meet Justyna Przybylowska the brainchild behind The Przy, an online print shop featuring mainly black and white prints. After checking out Justyna’s store one thing we quickly saw is that The Przy is not shy from being provocative, racy, emotional, and very, very raw.

Film Noire Genre: Her artwork is inspired by film noir (meaning “black or dark film”), a term used to describe stylish Hollywood crime dramas from the 1940s – 1950s. These films were mostly shot in gloomy grays, black, and white and showed a dark and inhumane side of human nature with doomed love.

You can see why she labels her artwork as film noire genre, as it directly relates to this type of mood, style, point-of-view and tone.

Artwork is all about expressing yourself, and this is another thing that Justyna does well. Looking through her prints you see a whole other world from her eyes and perspective. Justyna tries to use her artwork as a way of drawing awareness to subjects she feels are important. This could be emotions, personal experiences, or sometimes even political issues and corruption.

Her artwork is very glamorous although some prints may make you cringe like some of the morbid shots we found on her online store.

Here is my favorite print that I could definitely see hanging up in my office: red manicured fingers digging into a juicy slice of cake on a yellow and red Versace plate. How luxurious it looks!

There is definitely a piece of artwork for every space in your home. The piece below looks very money-worthy to be hung up in a sleek, modern kitchen.
